ABOUT | Joanne Oatts & Mark Winter

WHO WE ARE

We've been creative collaborators for over a decade - as both a senior conceptual creative team in advertising and as a filmmaking partnership. This combination means story sits at the heart of everything we do - whether that's film, experiential, audio content, or all things digital and social.

Alongside our consumer work, we work extensively in healthcare and pharmaceutical advertising for clients across Europe and the USA. Former Creative Directors at Havas Lynx, we have since created award-winning campaigns for agencies including Atomic Matter, Saatchi & Saatchi Wellness, Langland, DDB Remedy and LA-based The Considered.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

"Jo & Mark are a fantastic team who I've had the pleasure of working with both at adam&eveDDB and at The Gate. Most recently at The Gate, they slotted into a pitch team seamlessly - hitting the ground running with speed and energy. They're a hugely collaborative team, with no egos and no drama. Just a passion to find the winning idea and crack the brief. Whether it's a big new conceptual creative platform you need, or just some hard-working content, they're absolutely the team to solve it."
